No, despite means "in spite of", not "to spite".

We go with soft responses because it lowers the risk of retaliation, especially in cases where your livelihood or physical safety hinges on it. It's much easier to tell off a guy when you're with a group that you know will back you up, than when you're in a group where half the people will think you're the one being…
